Product & Benefits
(Con’t)
Commercial applications require rapid recovery to meet high demands. These sites also have large boilers to
accommodate the building(s) heating load. When both coils are utilized to heat domestic water, Premier
™
DC Series
have a heat transfer capability far in excess of traditional single-coil and tank-in-tank indirects. The resulting performance
can allow competitive bids by using fewer heaters than the competition (Figure 2).
Example: 80 Apartment units
700,000 BTUH domestic hot water demand
2-3GPM showerhead
2-3 person occupancy
NOTE: THESE FIGURES WERE OBTAINED USING 180°F BOILER WATER AT FLOWS OF APPROXIMATELY
15 GPM TOTAL FOR BOTH HEAT EXCHANGERS. UNLIKE MOST INDIRECTS, EXTREME BOILER TEMPS AND
EXOTIC CIRCULATOR PUMPS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO ACHIEVE THESE NUMBERS.
Dual Coil Units Can Reduce the Number of Hot Water Makers Required
